Lion Ted: Cruz Crushes the Detroit Debate

The Weekly Standard ^ | March 4, 2016 | Jonathan V. Last

[Vision Thing]

Cruz crushed a breath mint. Partially, at first, but eventually, he got around to crushing the entire mint. :)

[mbrfl]

Cruz’s most devastating attack of the night was on that b—ger sitting on his lower lip. He attacked it with gusto. It didn’t stand a chance.

Yeah, I know. That was a crude and childish response on my part, but I couldn’t resist.

[Bobalu]

The booger incident turned Cruz into a laughingstock.

Fair or no, that’s the truth....

[orangeTank]

If Cruz’ sales pitch wasn’t hypocritical, it might work. But he’s definitely leveraged political power for his own personal gain. And leveraged that power at the expense of his own voters in Texas.

Oh please....now rubbish from THE WEEKLY STANDARD?

You're desperate and so are they!

Trump will easily get the required 1237 delegates on April 19th !

Where is the model for that? If it’s available, I’d like to bookmark it and see how Trump’s actuals compare.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Gist:

1.) Trump is a fraud who can't be trusted to keep his word.

2.) Trump is not either conservative or Republican in any meaningful way.

3.) Trump actually is the corruption that he decries.

In the N.Y. Post last week, but not sure of which day; sorry.

Have you been eating blow fish sushi?

No details, just D’Amato predicting it.

Apparently Trump’s “Cruz is a liar” meme has deranged a few FReepers. Oh well.

Thanks for this article. It's become too painful to keep up with political news; I hardly even listen to Rush or Levin anymore because the thought that Americans are on the verge of electing people with no reverence for the Constitution-or the truth, for that matter-is downright depressing.
There's simply no reasoning with Trump supporters. There are no facts you can present to them even if the source is Trump himself that will move them to think; all they'll do is ridicule.

If you read the book of Proverbs, you must conclude that a large swath of the current electorate meets king Solomon's definition of a fool.

Cruz voted for the fast track-he is part of the corruption.

All you need to know about the Weakly

[sargon]

The record seems to be clear that Ted Cruz is a top notch debater.

Unfortunately, being a great technical debater is not tantamount to:

1. being a great President
2. inspiring American voters
3. expanding the GOP demographic base
4. being a leader of men
5. making America great again
6. winning enough delegates to get the nomination
7. being a charismatic, likable person

If only...

Go. Trump. Go.

[fortheDeclaration]

The fact is that Cruz will never win a general election.

That is a simple fact.
